Even on the first part, installing 1.6.5.4, shutting down, then upgrading from 1.6.5.4 to 1.7.1.1, the installer reports an onminous error. (After starting up, however, all my data is there in the 1.7.1.1 server.)

This fix will affect all upgrades, so retesting the full upgrade matrix is required (1.6.x to 1.7.2; 1.7.1.x to 1.7.2; 1.6.x to 1.7.1 to 1.7.2; all platforms; clustered and single-node)

I just talked to Karan, and reconfirmed that he found that 1.7.1.1 has the same upgrade bug as 1.7.2r-9. That is, the following does not work: 1.6.5.4->1.7.0->1.7.1.1
However, he has confirmed that the following does work: 1.6.5.4->1.7.1.1->1.7.2r-LATEST
Please reopen this bug if the following (or other cases against 1.7.2r-LATEST doesn't work): 1.6.5.4->1.7.x->1.7.2r-LATEST
